Sulfadoxin is a sulfonamide antibiotic that inhibits dihydropteroate synthetase (DHPS), an enzyme involved in folic acid (Item No. 20515) synthesis.{34630} Sulfadoxin competes with 4-aminobenzoate (PABA), the native substrate of DHPS, and inhibits PABA incorporation into folic acid.{34631} Folate is essential for purine and pyrimidine synthesis, therefore, sulfadoxin has antiproliferative activity in non-resistant P. falciparum.{34631,34632} Sulfadoxin inhibits growth of P. falciparum in vitro, but potency varies between non-resistant (IC50 = 4 ng/ml) and resistant strains (IC50 = 3,970 ng/ml).{34632}
